SPARROW RACING LEAGUE SUCKS
I can't believe how bad the SRL really is. I've never been so frustrated in Destiny EVER! And I've been here since the Beta... I don't understand why I finish in last place IN EVERY RACE! Is it because of the blasted gates? If you miss one they SUCK AWAY YOUR SPEED for no apparent reason. It doesn't make any freaking sense! And if you even graze a rock on the ground your sparrow goes flying off the track. And it's even worse when you are trading paint with other sparrows. I can't run into or be ran into by another sparrow without them sending me flying off the track! It doesn't make sense! I don't understand the logic or even the game physics of why these things happen all the time. Oh and why is it we have only 2 tracks? And they aren't even really race tracks... they are more like obstacle courses. They are freaking terrible. Why can't we have some REAL race tracks located in the protected environment of the Last City? Where there can actually be fans in the stands along the side and no obstacles to worry about? Bungie have you even ever watched a Formula One, Indy Car, or even a NASCAR race? And change the way the freaking gates work. So people that freaking get unlucky still have a shot of catching up. That would make WAY more sense. If you really want this SRL thing to be a big deal that's what should happen. As of right now it doesn't look like I'll be getting one of those new sparrows like I hoped I would. Didn't know that sparrow racing would be so ridiculously hard. The only reason I'm doing it at all at this point is because I want the armor shaders. Already have the class items and helmets. But a new racing sparrow looks impossible. Maybe if the quests steps didn't involve winning/finishing in the top 3 I could do it. But as of right now SRL is just too hard. :(

2 RepliesI have to agree. This is the worst racing game out there. I just got done with a game where I flew over a hill, someone pushed me, and I caught the corner of a rock. That made my sparrow completely stop. Really??? Lol. Then in the same game, I didn't even do anything wrong, I cut a corner, and my guy was doing horizontal spins, which lead to death. I have been playing racing games for years and always top first. This is not racing. Too many bugs. Too much bs. You slightly hit the wall wrong and your character goes flying out of the map. I think Destiny should stick to FPS and leave racing to NFS. They havent

Not as bad as BLINK IN PVP!

The only problem I have with it is how 1.) how easily someone can push you 2.) how easily you can get launched by the map Other than that they did a good job on it

Sounds like someone doesn't know how to use a sparrow...

4 RepliesYeah there is some lag switching going on in addition to just normal lag from bad connection. I have run into lag switchers once or twice (though they are wasting it on me I am not that good usually sooner or later I bump a wall or screw up a turn and they could then pass me easy). Sadly there are people who are going to find a way to cheat in any game with PVP element. It is just one of the things we have to deal with. So far the I would say that lag switching is very very rare in SRL for now, maybe the switcher are still trying to learn how to use it to their advantage. Yes it is very frustrating when you encounter someone doing it but all in all it is not something I worry about to much. Besides there is always the next race.

If you are using a scuf controller don't forget to turn off your hair triggers. I was finishing last every time too till I realized that my hair triggers were still on. Lol. Now I finish first almost every time.

1 ReplyI think it's perfectly fine. It really isn't that hard

1 ReplySorry to hear you're not enjoying SRL. I would recommend moving your post to #feedback to get it in front of the devs that make Destiny. #Help is for troubleshooting technical issues.
